REMI 5-in-1

This alarm clock is a sleep tracker, nightlight, baby monitor, a Bluetooth speaker and it even puts your kids to bed ... just kidding (about the last thing, that is)! But, seriously, this little gadget is an all-in-one that's perfect for families without a lot of space, or parents trying to keep the clutter to a minimum. It may seem pricey but totally worth a good night's sleep in our eyes.

Tock the Learning Clock

Preschoolers can now tell time … to the beat! With two learning modes, Tock the Learning Clock from Learning Resources chimes in with dance party tunes for every right answer and also prompts kids to match the hands to a digital display of the time. Extra perks include a nightlight and “okay to wake” light if you need to make sure dance parties don’t kick off too early.

Puppy Training Clock

We're not sure what we like more about this alarm clock. The fact that it's an adorable puppy dog, that it has a hidden compartment so your kid can't mess with the settings, or that it's got both wake-up and a nap timer, which is perfect for weekends or days home from preschool. Set the time for when you want the green ball to light up, and watch your kid go from a too-early riser to a right-on-time tot.

Trolls Alarm Clock

Your kid will love to be woken up by the ultimate morning person—Poppy the Troll! The built-in music and sound effects are fun (the song Get Back Up Again is included), there's an easy-to-read backlit display with a sleep timer night-light and it's even LED.

Telly the Time Telling Clock

A fun face and the option of switching between digital and analog are just a few of the reasons why your kid will enjoy having Telly the Time Telling clock on his bedside table. There's also a quiz mode that asks kids to move the hands to the time requested, and digital display lights up at night to keep a kid company.

Zazu kids’ newest friend Pam the Penguin is a perfect intro for your youngest early bird. This one comes as a sleep trainer, wireless speaker and nightlight all in one. She turns green when it’s time to get up, you can choose your own color nightlight (multi-color, pink, white, blue or red), and you can play songs from Zazu’s carefully curated playlists.

Robot Clock

These friendly robots not only give kids a lesson in telling time—old school style—but the bright colors and geometric design are an easy way to add a stylish feature to your little one’s abode. They are also ideal for light sleepers because the clock operates without the usual tick-tock sound.

This tiny, compact LED box does it all: Alarm clock, Bluetooth speaker, smart touch lamp and MP3 player! The touch-sensitive lamp comes with three settings (dim, medium, and bright), seven colors and the battery power (it charges with a USB cable) lasts up to seven hours of light or five hours of music. You can even program the alarm to blast your kiddo’s current power jam, which will make the early mornings a lot more bearable.

Classic Clock

We love this classic clock from Land of Nod. It comes in two colors (ivory and soft gray), and the traditional design will add charm to any room. The black numbers on a white face are easy to see, and there’s even a real hammer to ring the bell in the a.m.!
